'GREAT MTB HOL FOR ALL STDS & A BEACH RESORT INCLUDED.'

Strengths:
Wide range of routes with single track & technical stuff, but always a "bail out" option if it gets too hairy. New bikes including full sus kona! top notch accomodation - free bar and air con rooms! 5 MINS walk into town for night out own pool or 50yrds to beach. Personal touch & great customer care from owner operator.Excellent value.

Weaknesses:
Too many bars & restaurants to tempt you into a late night! If thats a weakness?

Overall:
A great balance of excellent biking and the benefits of one of the better med resorts with more of a spanish feel than most.Ideal to take non biking partner as well.Via verde run is stunning and fine for beginners ,or a great burn for regulars.

'TOP QUALITY SINGLETRACK AT A GREAT PRICE'

Strengths:
The trails are amazing. Chilled environment. Caters well for all standards of riders. 100 yards from the beach for non-cyclists and a huge selection of great restaurants. Oh, and almost and forgot to mention the free alcohol.

Weaknesses:
Not much that I can think of

Overall:
I have been coming to Sierra Cycling for 11 years and it gets better every year.

'CHILLED, A HOME FROM HOME IN THE LAND OF SUNNY TRAILS'

Strengths:
The location gives you great rides AND great nightlife. Just like having a bunch of MTB mates with a house in Spain.

Weaknesses:
You could possibly find better riding from one of the companies based up in the mountains, but then what do you do in the evenings?

Overall:
With great rides and guides, a beach, pool, nightlife and free beer it's hard to see how it could be bettered.

Makes the Uk look a bit tame afterwards.

'LAID BACK HOME FROM HOME EXPERT GUIDES'

Strengths:
Very friendly, stayed in a three story house almost on the beach, free bar, bacon and egg breakfast, expert helpful guides, superb rides, The Ausralian Icecream bar after the rides, very social I went on my own but was instantly welcomed by the others staying there, airport collection no hassle finding my way there

Weaknesses:
Week went too quick

Overall:
I went as an absolute beginner having been used to tarmac and towpaths. Within minutes of starting my first ride I was going over tracks I never dreamed a bike could traverse, but with the expert help from our guides I did it. The climax of the week was staying on the bike over the boulders at El Chorro. I couldn't recommend this holiday any more than I have done, fantastic place, people, rides, plus lot's of places to have a drink, meal in the evening and if you talk to Tom and Matt the guides they'll tell you the best places.
